Then came the end, my cOuutrvmen,
The last thunderbOIts We're hurled!
Worn out by his own victories,
His battle flags were furled,
And history was finished
That has changed the modern world.
As some saint in the arena
OF q bloody Roman game,
As the prize Of his endeavOr
Put Oh an immortal frame,
Through long agOnies our Soldier
Won the crown of martial fame.
But there came greater glory
To that man suprtmeiy great
(Whcn his Just sword he laid aside
In peace to serve his state),
For in his classic solitude
He rose and mastered Fate.
He triamphed and he did not die
No funeral bells are tolled-
But on that day in Lexington
rame came herself 10 hold
His sti:rup while he mounted
To ride down the streets of gold.
He is not dead. There is no death
lie only went before,
His Journey on when Christ the Lord
Wide open held the door,
And calm, ceie=tiai peace is his;
Thank God iorerermore.

popularity of the match was that the
aboriginal time keeper neglected TO
call time until one or both the confess

went to grass. 1t would have done the
hearts of the Indian rights society good
to have seen the manner Ia which the
Crows rushed To the assistance OF their

because they could fight no more.
How they tanned, and drencheu ana
kneaded the pugilists; nothing was too
good for them, and an aged chief con-
fidentially informed a reporter that, in

over they signihed a desire TO retire OF
their several boudoirs and Jack and
